DISMANTLE Cool Down Lights Step 1 Switch off and unplug the lights. Light fixtures will be extremely hot so allow them to cool before handling. You may use the red shipping case lid as a stepping stool to reach the top of the frame. Remove Panels Step 2 Gently lift and remove the fist panel from magnetic struts, keeping the panel rigid. Roll the graphic with image facing out and place in shipping case. Remove the other panels in the same manner and pack it in the shipping case, inside one another.

If your exhibit has graphic end panels instead of fabric ones, they are removed in the same manner but are packed in the shipping case containing the graphic panels.
